Government Regulations
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesirable operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential instal-
lation. This equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television, which can be determined by
turning the equipment OFF and ON, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.
This device complies with the Industry Canada Radio Standards Specification
RSS 210. Its use is authorized only on a no-interference, no-protection basis; in
other words, this device must not be used if it is determined that it causes harm-
ful interference to services authorized by IC. In addition, the user of this device
must accept any radio interference that may be received, even if this interference
could affect the operation of the device.
Warning:
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this device.

Warning! Safety First
The following safety warnings must be observed at all times:
Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only
be performed by an authorized Directed dealer.
When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a com-
mand signal from the remote control transmitter. Therefore, never oper-
ate the system in an enclosed area or partially enclosed area without
ventilation (such as a garage). When parking in an enclosed or par-
tially enclosed area or when having the vehicle serviced, the remote
start system must be disabled using the installed toggle switch. It is the
user’s sole responsibility to properly handle and keep out of reach from
children all remote control transmitters to assure that the system does
not unintentionally remote start the vehicle. THE USER MUST INSTALL A
CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA
ADJACENT TO THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM ADJA-
CENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR PARTIALLY ENCLOSED
VEHICLE STORAGE AREA MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED.
These precautions are the sole responsibility of the user.
Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode of op-
eration may result in property damage, personal injury, or death. (1)
Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never
remotely start the vehicle with the keys in the ignition. The user must
also have the neutral safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked,
wherein the vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This
testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer in accor-
dance with the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide.
If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote start operation immediately
and consult with the authorized Directed dealer to x the problem.
v
© 2009 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.
After the remote start module has been installed, contact your autho-
rized dealer to have him or her test the remote start module by perform-
ing the Safety Check outlined in the product installation guide. If the
vehicle starts when performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit
test, the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The remote
start module must be removed or the installer must properly reinstall the
remote start system so that the vehicle does not start in gear. All installa-
tions must be performed by an authorized Directed dealer.
OPERATION OF THE REMOTE START MODULE IF THE VEHICLE STARTS
IN GEAR IS CONTRARY TO ITS INTENDED MODE OF OPERATION.
OPERATING THE REMOTE START SYSTEM UNDER THESE CONDI-
TIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND SEEK
THE ASSISTANCE OF AN AUTHORIZED DIRECTED DEALER TO RE-
PAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED REMOTE START MODULE.
DIRECTED WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLA-
TION OR REINSTALLATION COSTS.

Important information
Congratulations on the purchase of your combination remote start alarm
system. Due to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an
authorized dealer only. Installation of this product by anyone other than
an authorized dealer voids the warranty. All dealers are provided with
a preprinted dealer cer tifi cate to verify authorization.

System maintenance
The system requires no specific maintenance beyond remote battery
replacement. The remote is powered by a 1.5V AAA battery.
The battery level indicator has three level indicators that serve as a
visual indication of battery charge. When the battery reaches a low
charge level that requires replacement, the remote generates a single
notification chirp, and the battery level indicator flashes continuously.
Battery Replacement
Gently pull the battery cover release tab, then slide the door down to
expose the battery and remove the expired battery. Place the new bat-
tery into the remote observing the correct polarity. When power is re-
turned the all icons in the LCD are lit, and the remote plays a melody.
1-way battery replacement
The remote is powered by a small, lightweight 3V CR2032 battery
that last approximately one year under normal use. When the battery
begins to weaken operating range is reduced and the LED on the
remote dims.
